Open up new space for development and effectively protect national security.

Artificial intelligence has become a new engine of economic development. As the core driving force of the new round of industrial reform, artificial intelligence will further release the huge energy accumulated in previous scientific and technological revolutions and industrial changes, and create a new powerful engine to reconstruct all aspects of economic activities such as production, distribution, exchange, and consumption. The new intelligent demands in various fields from macro to micro have spawned new technologies, new products, new industries, new formats and new models, triggered major changes in the economic structure, profoundly changed human production and lifestyle and thinking patterns, and achieved an overall leap in social productivity. . China's economic development has entered a new normal, and the task of deepening supply-side structural reform is very arduous. We must accelerate the in-depth application of artificial intelligence, cultivate and grow the artificial intelligence industry, and inject new momentum into China's economic development.

Artificial intelligence brings new opportunities for social construction. China is in the decisive stage of building a well-off society in an all-round way. Challenges such as population aging and resource and environmental constraints are still severe.

Accurate level of service and comprehensively improve people's quality of life. Artificial intelligence technology can accurately sense, predict, and warn of major trends in infrastructure and social security operations, timely grasp of group cognition and psychological changes, and proactive decision-making reactions will significantly improve the ability and level of social governance, which is indispensable for effective maintenance of social stability The role of substitution.

Uncertainty in the development of artificial intelligence brings new challenges. Artificial intelligence is a disruptive technology with a wide range of influences. It may bring about changes in employment structure, impact on laws and social ethics, violation of personal privacy, and challenges to international relations norms. It will have far-reaching effects on government management, economic security and social stability, and even global governance. influences. While vigorously developing artificial intelligence, we must attach great importance to possible security risk challenges, strengthen forward-looking prevention and restraint guidance, minimize risks, and ensure the safe, reliable, and controllable development of artificial intelligence.
